Hi all

I have the above card tried it in 3 1200s and just get a blank grey screen

Have removed the ram to check and still the same

Could be a faulty oscillator (BTW, NEVER RUN THE CARD WITHOUT FITTED OSC).

Also, I used to use an Apollo1240 with FastATA, and that combination didn't work with standard 3.0 roms (black screen)...but worked with 3.1 roms.

Also check for leaked battery, check for damaged traces. If it's really bad it's possibly eaten away at traces inside the card.
